The dryer runs and the drum turns, but no heat. I've checked all the thermostats and they have continuity. Could the heating element be bad, and if so, how do I check to see if it is bad?

The first thing I would check is 240V at the power outlet.

The motor and all controls needed just 120V while the heating element needs 240V. If one of the power legs is mussing, the dryer will run but it would not heat.

To check the heating element without the wiring diagram and/or schematic you have to remove the drum.

- The part number for the heating element coils is AP2620171
